Mississippi Capitol Police are marking National Dog Month by spotlighting their K-9 officers, including Tank, Crow, Rambo, and BoBo. These dogs serve alongside their handlers, performing duties such as tracking, narcotics detection, and bomb disposal, according to the department.
The department shared photos and details of the dogs’ work, emphasizing their skills and importance in law enforcement. The K-9s are described as dedicated professionals who also enjoy treats and belly rubs during their time off.
While the dogs are well-loved and celebrated, police officials note they are always ready to work. The department encourages the public to show support for the K-9 teams and their handlers, who serve diligently every day.
The department’s post included hashtags like #NationalDogMonth and #K9Officers, highlighting the special recognition for these four-legged officers this month.
